Your Nikon has real close configuration to my Nikon Coolpix S3300. Mine is not waterproof or shockproof, and I think the only other differences are I have a 6X wide zoom and 16 MP.
I think it's cool that yours comes with a mini-tripod. The only negative I have about mine is that I can't get good closeup shots. Maybe a tripod would steady the camera, and the close-ups would be clearer? Anyway, I like my Coolpix a lot. Like you said, simple to use and not at all spendy.
Looking forward to seeing your new photos of your Henrys!
